Certainly, as the Minister suggested, we could continue to provide more communication about our role. I think, in respect to the question raised by the Member, I would cite one example that our consumer affairs office did when concerns about gas prices were brought to our attention in the department. Through that consumer affairs unit, we undertook an analysis of gas prices in the Northwest Territories, in market communities. We did see that there were certain vendors who continued to keep their gas prices at the same price forever, regardless of what they might have been paying for the commodity, and so you really wondered about whether or not there was an active market economy going on where you would expect gas prices to fluctuate. As a result of our investigation in this area, we went and met with a number of vendors, and we specifically talked to them about how they set their gas prices. It was actually an interesting example of having the government go and meet with vendors. We actually started to see fluctuation within the gas-price markets as a result of our intervention in that case.
Sometimes, it is as simple as the government asking questions and raising concerns on behalf of the resident that compels the vendors to perhaps adjust how they are setting prices or things like that, so that is an example, Mr. Chair, of how we would apply advocacy on behalf of a resident. Thank you, Mr. Chair.
